'Tranquil Beauty'
A night to remember:
"What am I doing with my life?" she asked me after recounting what she had been through in the past few years.
"You're still living it with strength." I told her.
"And by the way, as the new person coming to my branch, I'll look after you personally," I said with a grin and for the first time, she was not drowned in melancholy but I knew that a fire of hope and freedom burned in her smile.
The light of the July moon glowed a silver shade. It pierced through the darkness that engulfed the streets of Venice and illuminated them with the effect a single burning candle would have in a small, confined room. I leaned over my balcony, peering into the canal below and saw the reflection of my 'tranquil beauty' standing beside me, in my arms, and the tranquil beauty of the Italian night around me.
The night: what a perfect time for love and murder.
